Just how many Ferrari 458s are already in London?

There was a red one and a black one parked outside Zuma last night when I left.
I walked round the corner and another red one was driving along Knightsbridge

It sounds like we have had 4 (5 including press car at top gear thing)
There has been a black one on swiss plates and red one on spanish plates for a good 2 weeks. They seem to be around everyday so i assume UK LHD imports as they can't wait for the RHD cars.
I still havn't seen one, only the black one at Romans International but looks like Clive Sutton have sold a couple...

the black one looked naff

I disagree, I thought it looked bloody great, enhanced it and toned down some of the more extre styling cues.

The black on is now for sale by the looks of it, £205,000
2,000 miles on the clock.

thought the lines were lost on a black car and having jacked up suspension on a ferrari makes it look goofy. have a look at those pics in the classifieds.

thought you ordered red?

A bit O/T....but are the brake lights the lights at exhaust level? I saw a California hit the brakes last night and those lights came on...or was the fella playing with the fogs?

Decided not to keep my Scuderia, so changed the 458 to black

I saw a red one last night on green plates (no country sticker) outside Sushinho on the Kings Road.

I also have seen a red one on Italian plates on Sloane St and a black one on Hungarian plates in Wandsworth.

The more I see them, the more they are growing on me though.

On the Cali, the brake lights are where you say (by the number plate) because EU regulations say they cannot be on surfaces that move (i.e. the boot lid).

Caught the sight of the rear of a red one go tonking past the ace cafe on saturday afternoon !
